As of writing:
I cannot find komplete 10 standard and ultimate on their website anymore, even after intensive searching and using the website search function.
(even the buy links : buy komplete 10 and komplete ultimate, that can be found on the individual product pages, like absynth, points back to the main page, instead of a komplete product page)
All in all, i can only find the kontakt free and komplete elements "bundles"... not the komplete standard and ultimate bundles.

Does this mean, komplete 11 is to be released within a few days from now?

If you're accessing the Kontakt page, you'll see two new things:
(1) on the "what's new" tab, they write about Kontakt 5.6, available in September,
(2) on the bottom of the page, they say it's included in...*drumroll*... Komplete 11 and Ultimate, which have new pages.

Indeed, the pages for Komplete 10 are gone.

Uh, i see at the bottom of the kontakt 5 page:
" INCLUDED IN KOMPLETE 10 AND KOMPLETE 10 ULTIMATE
You can also find this product in KOMPLETE 10 and KOMPLETE 10 ULTIMATE. These industry-standard instrument and effect suites deliver unrivaled power for any production task. Power up your studio with KOMPLETE for almost 90% less than the combined prices of the individual products."

with two buy buttons, both leading back to the ni website main page, instead of the product page for komplete.

I see no mentioning of komplete 11 anywhere. (used text search, locally) Perhaps it's geographically different, the website contents?

Yes, NI website mid-update, so looks like today is indeed launch day.

Good spot, here's the info for those click-averse:

KONTAKT 5.6 – AVAILABLE SEPTEMBER 2016

The user interface has received a major update, bringing it line with the latest NI designs.
A fully customizable XY Pad can now be added to user interfaces built with KSP.
Developers can now maintain precision even in use-cases involving complex math, with the introduction of a new variable type for real numbers.
Going hand in hand with the introduction of real numbers, a library of advanced math functions has been introduced. Trigonometric functions, logarithms, exponential functions, etc., will allow for more easily readable code and lower memory footprint.
Maximum width of instruments raised to 1000 pixels and maximum height to 750 pixels.
New command to set an instrument’s color, including its header.

It may be geographically dependent, I don't know, but I still see it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lhhe8mefjywf2 ... 3.png?dl=0

And yes, the links lead to what Youdster posted.

So the good news - looks like there's a download option.

The bad news - as it stands, it looks like I can't upgrade from 10 Ultimate to 11 Regular. Perhaps some early teething problems with the website?

The Form (aka the purple waveform thingie) now has its own page - it's a sample-mangler which, among other things, allows control over the sample formants and also does some kind of FM. Judging from the sound demos, it should be good mosty for various ambient/soundscapes stuff.

As predicted, it's a Reaktor synth

...yup, as I've learnt recently, NI doesn't offer downgrades...

Yes, that has always been the case with Komplete Ultimate. Once you upgrade to Ultimate, you're locked into an Ultimate-only upgrade path. That's one reason I've always stuck with the Standard version, the other being that I simply have no need or space for that much bloatware sitting unused on my computer (I get enough of that with Standard).

When do you see komplete 11 coming out?
